Abstract：
INTRODUCTION:Bariatric surgery is an effective treatment for obesity resulting in both sustained weight loss and reduction in obesity-related comorbidities. It is uncertain how sociodemographic factors affect postoperative outcomes. METHODS:The National Inpatient Sample was queried for patients undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) or sleeve gastrectomy (SG) from 2005 to 2014. Factors associated with selection of SG over RYGB, increased postoperative length of stay (LOS) greater than 3 days, and inpatient mortality were compared by race, insurance status, and other clinical and hospital factors. RESULTS:The database captured 781,413 patients, of which 525,986 had a RYGB and 255,428 had SG. There was an increase in the incidence of SG over RYGB over time. Among the self-pay/uninsured, the increased incidence began several years earlier than other groups. Black patients had greater odds of increased postoperative LOS (OR 1.40) and in-hospital mortality (OR 2.11). CONCLUSION:Sociodemographic factors are associated with differences in temporal trends in the adoption of SG versus RYGB for surgical weight loss.
